Using SnapDrive for iSCSI setup on Windows

Use the NetApp SnapDrive software to simplify iSCSI setup on Windows hosts. See the following NetApp documentation for the most complete instructions. Instructions are listed here for ease of use.

For additional information, see: SnapDrive 6.5 for Windows Installation and Administration Guide.

Configuration is done on the host where the data resides. This is the host that is used to access the data.

  1. Enable iSCSI on each storage system.
  2. Install NetApp SnapDrive.
  3. Create the NetApp volume.
  4. Use SnapDrive to establish a connection to the target storage system.
